Experiments.

Small pieces we make to try out an idea: a sound, a motion, a new way of building something. They aren’t products, so they don’t get updates or support.

Doorsong: a red doorway hung with strands, under the line One time, one meeting

Doorsong

Six doorways, each tuned to a different place. Sweep through the hanging strands and each one rings with its own instrument: a bronze temple bell for China, a glass furin for Japan, an ektara for Bengal, bamboo for Việt Nam, an oud for Morocco and a marimba for México.

Every sound is synthesized in the browser as you play, with no recordings, and each strand swings and settles like a real one.

Inspired by Marina Budarina’s doors of the world idea.
